Use and Care

The Bandit accompanies hiking, cycling, skiing or running outings as well as daily commutes. To preserve the longevity of the fabric and closures, it is recommended to clean the pack with a damp cloth and mild soap, then let it air dry away from a direct heat source. Avoid machine washing to preserve the seams and reinforcements.
